Don Diablo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Give a little, give a little something more of me (hah)
Show everyone that ever doubted
I got a whole lot of fire left in me
I wasn't, I wasn't ready to be honest
I know and I know I owe it to myself
So from that day I made a promise
I get up, I get up every time I fail
I'm brave
I'm brave
Even when the fear is staring in my face
Oh, I'm brave
I'm brave
I'm brave
I'm brave
Oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh (I'm so brave)
Oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh
I wanna, I wanna tell the world about it
I'm gonna, I'm gonna put it up in lights
'Til everybody with a heart is up
See I won't go, no I won't go without a fight
I'm brave
I'm brave
Even when the fear is staring in my face
Oh, I'm brave
I'm brave
I'm brave
I'm brave (Brave)
Oh-oh, oh, oh (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh-oh, oh, oh (I'm so brave)
Oh-oh, oh, oh (Yeah-eah)
Oh-oh, oh, oh (Mmm)
Don't matter where I belong
But who's to say that I'm wrong
I'll stand here all the same
Some things might get in my way
But I know I'll be okay
I will stand here all the same
I'm brave
I'm brave
Even when the fear is staring in my face
Oh, I'm brave
I'm brave
I'm brave
I'm brave
Oh-oh, oh, oh (Bra-a-ave)
Oh-oh, oh, oh (I'm so brave)
Oh-oh, oh, oh (Yeah-eah)
Oh-oh, oh, oh
I'm brave
So brave
Even when the fear is staring in my face
Oh, I'm brave
So brave
I'm brave
I'm brave
The lyrics to Don Diablo & Jessie J's song Brave revolve around the theme of bravery and resilience in the face of fear and failure. The opening lines “I wanna, I wanna tell the world about it, Give a little, give a little something more of me” suggest a desire to prove oneself and demonstrate that they are capable of achieving great things. The lines “So from that day I made a promise, I get up, I get up every time I fail” indicate a commitment to keep trying and persevering even when faced with setbacks.
The chorus “I'm brave, Even when the fear is staring in my face, Oh, I'm brave, I'm brave” reinforces the message of courage and determination, as the singer declares their strength in the face of adversity. The bridge “Don't matter where I belong, But who's to say that I'm wrong, I'll stand here all the same” suggests a defiance towards those who doubt or criticize them, and a willingness to stand up for themselves and their beliefs.
Overall, Brave is an empowering anthem that encourages listeners to be brave, resilient and tenacious, and to never give up on their dreams, no matter how difficult the journey might be.
